Should I Commit to Doing a School Fair Next Month? TIA!

In summary, when deciding whether to commit to doing a school fair next month, it's important to consider your schedule, resources, and goals. Participating in a school fair can have benefits such as reaching a new audience, networking, and increasing brand awareness. The amount of preparation time needed can vary, but it's recommended to start planning a few weeks in advance.

I have the oppt to do a school fair next month but it's kind or expensive 3 hours = $70:yuck:. Not sure how many people actually attend (it's my cousin's kids school and she's not sure how many will attend):confused: . Would you all do it? Just need a nudge or swaying before I committ!;)
TIA!
 
Can you check with your director if she has extra funds to help you cover the cost for the booth? You never know about these things... it could very well be there is someone waiting to see YOU at that event... does it fit your schedule?
 
I would examine why you would do it-is it for sales, bookings or recruit leads? Then decide how much $$$ you would make from 1 show or 1 order or 1 recruit!

I will ask her but she's pretty busy doing her own Fairs lately, so I just assume she's using her own fair reimbursements? It does suit my calander I just don't know if I want to shell out the $$$ right now? I guess I was just wondering if you all would take the risk for an unknown event?
 
Do you have a consultant close by that would work it with you? Most booths that I do are with another consultant and we each keep our own leads (usually have different color door prize slips). That would cut the cost in half.
